Not scanning all show level TV Extras

Server Version#: 1.25.7.5604

I am having an issue where I am not seeing all of my TV extras at the show level. I have everything named correctly and in the show folder. The scanner is picking up some extras, but not all. For example I have 4 -deleted, and it’s only showing 3. I recently had to change 3 files to -short instead of -shorts, but that change wasn’t picked up and those are still missing. And another series has 29 extras, none of which are showing up.

Please show the actual folder structure and file names.

As soon as I posted I remembered the old school way of forcing a re-scan. I pulled out the entire show folder, scan, moved back in, scan. Everything showed up, as expected. Even though I believe the new scanner was supposed to eliminate that dance. Downside is all the custom posters I selected are no longer there. And items in playlists are gone as well. Not thrilled about that.

Before doing the Plex Dance, try Analyze, followed by Refresh Metadata on the show level.
It might be sufficient in most cases.

Good tip, thanks @OttoKerner. It’s not the first time I’ve done the dance somewhat recently. I’ll try to keep that in mind.
